Windows SSL certificate problem

Windows users may run into an SSL certificate problem when first attempting to upload to RPubs. Here is advice developed by the students in STAT 545A:

- Your basic solution can be found at https://support.rstudio.com/hc/en-us

- You will need to add the line options (rpubs.upload.method = “internal”) to the file Rprofile.site which will live somewhere like this: C:\Program Files\R\R-3.0.1\etc. Yes take the etc literally. There is a directory with this name.

- You will need administrator access to edit this file, which you can get by right clicking and choosing “Run as administrator” when you launch whatever you're going to use for editing (plain text editor like NotePad).

- Another way to get permission to edit this file: Right click on the file, choose “Properties”–> “Security”, and Edit to give “Full control” to “Users”. Then you will be given the permission to edit the file.
